You’re describing monarchies lmaooo

Time gets shorter. I’ve already experienced this going from my teens to my twenties and into my thirties. I can remember entire weeks of my childhood. By the time I was in my mid twenties, days and weeks blurred together. Now it’s like months go by and I don’t even notice.

People talk about it more as they get older. Eventually when you enter your 80s and 90s, it’s like entire decades can come and go. So imagine when you’re immortal. If you’ve been alive for 100,000 years, that’s longer than writing has been around. Entire civilizations will have come and went.

But from your perspective, it’s all a blur. Entire genealogies were experienced, yet those people barely registered in your mind. If you had a favorite food, maybe the recipe disappears when you went four centuries without eating it. Jokes and fashions you’re familiar with are completely alien to everyone else. Are you even capable of noticing when things change at that point?

There’s also the question of how human are you? Everything and everyone would seem inconsequential. Would you even be able to socialize with others, or would you be completely sociopathic? That’s if you don’t hurt anyone and get tossed in a jail cell. What happens if you spend a few centuries in prison? Fight in multiple wars? Would you even feel the slightest discomfort when you kill someone?

Okay but if we use “Late stage capitalism and the quest for profit above all else is causing the quality of goods and commodities to drop while their value stays the same or goes up,” it’s going to result in 20 minutes trying to explain things correctly followed by 20 hours of anti-communist arguments.

Can they use bows or crossbows? What about pikes? Just crazy how they respect rules like that when the eventual conclusion is guns.

I inherited this pet peeve from someone else and at the same time, developed the pet peeve of inheriting other people’s pet peeves.

Counterpoint: Agu is volseal and will let you smooch him if you ask nicely.

Then you get the women who hate ethnic minorities, foreigners, sex-positivity, other religions that aren’t their own denomination, and LGBTQ+ people more than they hate sexism. They will put up with misogynistic bullshit if it means they get to be racist and homophobic.

There’s probably more of the former, though. Like you say a lot of them trick themselves into “being the exception,” often because their partner is nice to them specifically.

Something else that affects our teeth (though I’m not sure if it affects growth) is sugar consumption. Our ancestors had very little access to sugar or even spices. They ate things like meat and veggies plain. Back in prehistoric times, this meant they wouldn’t have to brush their teeth, since the bacteria in their mouths wouldn’t have produced plaque.

That’s why a lot of human remains of 80-year-olds from 20,000 BC have perfect teeth or only a few missing after those teeth got knocked out by getting hit in the face. If you’re ever stranded on a deserted island, you should avoid eating all those coconuts and bananas with every meal.

There’s some guy on YouTube who was showing how to lift boulders and logs by himself using only simple levers and inclines. It’s been a while since I watched it, but if I remember right he moves a rock the size of a car 100 yards and lifts it a few feet into the air.

He does this with tree branches, rope, and scrap wood lol

“General Slide”

“Apartment hide”

“Glenner lied”

“A part thigh”

You forgot they’re also criminal masterminds who smuggle in thousands of dollars in drugs over the border, kill hundreds of Americans without getting caught, are master engineers that build massive tunnel networks underground, and scam the government out of billions of dollars via welfare programs.

Honestly I wish immigrants were the people conservatives think they are because they’d have an insane set of skills we could use.

I think I’d rather be launched into the sun over Jupiter. The sun you die pretty quickly as you get closer to it. I can’t imagine there’s much that could stop heat once you get past Mercury. Jupiter though? Jupiter is fucking spooky. Its core is hot like any molten core, but there’s no crust. You’d fall through the sky and just keep falling for hundreds of miles. You’d eventually die from the heat like you would with the sun, but you wouldn’t be able to see anything. At some point all you can see is goop. It’s like being underwater in the Mariana Trench, but the water is nitrogen, metallic hydrogen, and liquid silicone.

Yah the reason Europeans have stuff like free education and healthcare is because the US does all their dirty work. Iraq is a perfect example. The US took very little oil for itself, continuing to rely on South American and domestic fossil fuels. But Iraq wasn’t keeping its oil for itself, it was all being siphoned off to Britain, France, Norway, Germany, etc.

Is Trump actually a Hexbear doing deep undercover? Someone needs to check his e-mails.

This has been a common tactic for the right going back as far as there have been mass shootings. They will always claim the shooter is part of some out-group, while simultaneously cheering for mass murder. Then they will bring out “”““crime statistics””“” about how black and Latino people are the real mass shooters, so a white shooter doesn’t count because reasons.

Yeah. Caterpillars are moth/butterfly larvae, which are insects. I think ant and termite larva are similar (but stumpier).

tl;dr-- the cruelty is the point.

lol I’ve seen clips of the first one and holy shit it’s so obvious they only read Wikipedia and Spark’s Notes for anything longer than Green Ham and Eggs.

US is the first and only country to ever use an atomic bomb. And not just one bomb: two. So of course we wouldn’t launch a preemptive strike, right?
